Freedom & Patience
Tried something different with this one. I realised it is kind of prophetic, I'm just thinking of how entropy would affect reason if reason is a fact of reality.

The way forward once set in stone
Slowly in time it becomes clear
That we will be unbounded
Conscious thought hones
We lose all fear
Eventually unfounded
Choices are prone
To take us here
Completely ungrounded
The decay of reason
Allowing true freedom
If one knew all
How could one wait
Like seeing the finish
One must learn pace
So live in the moment
For it is our foundation
A place to rest
Before bathing in the fountain
"One must learn pace". < This. I feel like this one
I've been kind of thinking on these lines lately. It helps me to describe it like a video game. Like, there's a lot of places that you can go back to anytime, but some parts have storyline that takes you to places you'll only see once. In real life, I know what it's like to get caught up in goals, and think about where I'll be when I get there, but literally every moment we live in has this weird ethereal quality, where that moment only exists in that moment, and each one affects the literal future and our reasoning of the past. That might just be my take from it, but it reminded me of the same logic I've been on.
Sorry, it cut out part of this. The first part is supposed to say I feel like this one builds up really well, and I love the feeling it invokes!
@Torean
That is a very interesting line of thought! I like the comparison to video games.
In a game like Baldur's Gate 3, you have a lot of option to roam around, decide the order of events. But eventually your choices will lead to a kind of destiny. I think life is much like that. It feels like determinism with free will mixed in. Seems a contradiction, I'd love to resolve it one day.
Each moment has potential for choice. Makes me feel truly free.
@cyanessence 👏👏👏 beautifully written 💗 and yes I agree we must live for the moment because right now that's what matters the most💖💖 you are very clever with your words💖 hugs you tightly 💖
@Tinywhisper11
You're very expressive with your words and emojis ~*^_^*~ it's so nice to see you happy.
Thank you so much for the feedback, I'm glad you enjoyed it. It's moments like these that refill my empty cup.
@cyanessence you filled your cup without me!?!😮😮😮 I need need coffee to you know😮😮😂😂😂😂😂 only joking 💖 your amazing 💖
@Tinywhisper11
You're definitely a bringer of beverages of the most delicious kind. I was having somewhat of a bad day but you really brightened it! I was feeling overwhelmed with what I had to reply to and do in life in general, but your genuine kindness just kind of made everything better.
@cyanessence 💜
@cyanessence one must learn pace is my favourite part 😊 It's so reflective of our innate desire and need to control all aspects of our lives when invariably it's the not knowing that keeps us moving forward 💜🥰
@Amanda84
You enlighten me. If all were known, there would be no mystery. No curiosity. And that drives innovation, drives humanity.
@cyanessence if we stopped wondering , nothing would be invented, if we didn't make mistakes, there'd be no solutions 💜
@Amanda84
There's nothing quite as satisfying as finding a solution!
You really tickle my brain ^^
@cyanessence always up to tickle your brain 🧠 😁
My brain has been dumb lately, so I have no idea what it means (seems to be a common theme for me lately lol). But it's really well-written!
I have a LOT of brain fog. Brain doesn't work lol
@jesusredeemedme2425
Don't feel bad if you're foggy. You'd be surprised what goes over my head. I just spent about half an hour looking at a map, trying to figure out which direction to go, left or right...
This poem was inspired by thinking of how everything seems to break down over time. I wondered what it would be like if reason itself broke down. I think it would feel completely free. But there's no rush to get there. What we have now is good and necessary.
Thank you for your kind words. You really boost my confidence!
Hey, tbh, maps are REALLY hard to understand. They’re like trying to understand a Wookie.
@jesusredeemedme2425
Made me laugh out loud xD I'm glad I'm not the only one!
Good, my work here is done ;)
Remember life before Google Maps??? Hehe
